September is Healthy Aging Month, a month set aside to focus on the importance of prioritizing our health and well-being as we age. The American Academy of Ophthalmology celebrates Healthy Aging Month by raising awareness of the signs and symptoms of age-related vision loss and the steps to help senior adults care for their sight.

As we age, our eyes change and become more prone to develop eye conditions that can cause your vision to diminish and may even lead to total vision loss. Routine eye exams are the best way to protect your vision, but it’s also important to know the warning signs of eye problems so you can receive treatment right away and prevent permanent vision loss.

The Eye Center strives to be on the leading edge of technology for LASIK and cataract patients. Recently, our own Dr. Brian Huff is the first doctor in South Carolina to implant the new TECNIS® Symfony IOL as a lens replacement option for cataract surgery patients.

Cataracts are a common occurrence as people age. When the eye’s lens begins to cloud over, impacting vision, there is a fast, simple solution that can restore vision without dramatically impacting life in the process.

TECNIS® Symfony IOL
The first and only presbyopia-correcting extended range of vision IOL.

Glaucoma & iStent
iStent works to help control your eye pressure by improving the outflow of fluid from your eyes.

Diabetic Eye Disease
Diabetic eye disease is the leading cause of blindness in the 20-64 year age group.

LenSx® Femtosecond Laser
The LenSx® Laser is the first femtosecond laser cleared by the FDA for use in cataract surgery.
